Installing and configuring Grafana _ Monitoring

 

Procedure

1. In the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform console, select Operators > OperatorHub and search for the Grafana operator that is provided by Red Hat OpenShift.
2. Install the Grafana operator for the openshift-user-workload-monitoring namespace.
3. Create an instance of Grafana.
   1. Select Operator > OperatorHub > Grafana Operator and then select the Grafana tab.
   2. Click Create Grafana.
   3. On YAML tab, enter the following text:

      apiVersion: integreatly.org/v1alpha1
      kind: Grafana
      metadata:
        name: mas-grafana
        namespace: openshift-user-workload-monitoring
      spec:
        ingress:
          enabled: true
        dataStorage:
          accessModes:
            - ReadWriteOnce
          size: 10Gi
          class: ocs-storagecluster-cephfs
        config:
          log:
            mode: "console"
            level: "warn"
          security:
            admin_user: "root"
            admin_password: "secret"
          auth:
            disable_login_form: False
            disable_signout_menu: True
          auth.anonymous:
            enabled: True
        dashboardLabelSelector:
          - matchExpressions:
              - {key: app, operator: In, values: [grafana]}
      

      A route is created, and the public URL is included in that route definition in the openshift-user-workload-monitoring namespace project.
4. Remember to update the subscription.yaml file and add the following configuration so that Grafana scans for the dashboard across the whole cluster:

   Config:
          env: 
          - name: "DASHBOARD_NAMESPACES_ALL" 
             value: "true"

   After an update, the subscription.yaml file looks like the following:

   apiVersion: operators.coreos.com/v1alpha1
           kind: Subscription
           metadata:
             name: grafana-operator
             namespace: "{{ grafana_namespace }}"
             labels:
               operators.coreos.com/grafana-operator.{{ grafana_namespace }}: ''
           spec:
             channel: v4
             installPlanApproval: Automatic
             name: grafana-operator
             source: community-operators
             sourceNamespace: openshift-marketplace
             config:
               env:
                 - name: "DASHBOARD_NAMESPACES_ALL"
                   value: "true"

5. Run the following command to grant the user permission.

   oc adm policy add-cluster-role-to-user cluster-monitoring-view -z grafana-serviceaccount

6. Run the following command to obtain the BEARER_TOKEN.

   - oc serviceaccounts get-token grafana-serviceaccount -n openshift-user-workload-monitoring

7. Create the GrafanaDataSource, which points to the Prometheus instance that you installed earlier.
1. Select the Grafana Operator > Installed operators > GrafanaDataSource tab.
2. Enter the following text and replace the ${BEARER_TOKEN} value with the value that you obtained in a previous step.

   apiVersion: integreatly.org/v1alpha1
   kind: GrafanaDataSource
   metadata:
     name: prometheus-grafanadatasource
     namespace:  openshift-user-workload-monitoring
   spec:
     datasources:
       - access: proxy
         editable: true
         isDefault: true
         jsonData:
           httpHeaderName1: 'Authorization'
           timeInterval: 5s
           tlsSkipVerify: true
         name: Prometheus
         secureJsonData:
           httpHeaderValue1: 'Bearer ${BEARER_TOKEN}'
         type: prometheus
         url: 'https://thanos-querier.openshift-monitoring.svc.cluster.local:9091'
     name: prometheus-grafanadatasource.yaml

How to import attachments into MAXIMO using MIF

 How to upload file using MIF (Maximo Integration Framework)?

1. Create Object Structure.

You have two scenarios:

1. Send only the attachment using table DOCLINKS.
2. Send the attachment owner with DOCLINKS table, like WORKORDER,SR, ITEM, etc. To know if the desired table is supported, a tip is execute query below:

select parent from maxrelationship where child = 'DOCLINKS';

Observation: You can also create an Enterprise Service, but in this example, we will use only Object Structure.

 

2. Create Web Service.

I am not going to enter in every detail of Web Service creation. You just need to create and deploy Web Service. You can do that using Web Services Library application.

3. Submit the XML.

You can use any tool to submit XML into Web Service. I usually use SoapUI, it’s simple and easy to use.

https://www.soapui.org/
 

The XML below is just a sample having the required attributes.

XML:

1. Scenario 01: In this scenario you are going to upload the file to the server into doclinks folder. (In my case C:\doclinks\attachments)

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/&quot; xmlns:max="http://www.ibm.com/maximo"&gt;    <soapenv:Header/>    <soapenv:Body>       <max:SyncMXDOCLINK>          <max:MXDOCLINKSet>               <max:SR action="AddChange">                <max:DESCRIPTION >Test 01 SR description</max:DESCRIPTION>                 <max:ORGID>EAGLENA</max:ORGID>                 <max:SITEID>BEDFORD</max:SITEID>                  <max:DOCLINKS>                   <max:ADDINFO>1</max:ADDINFO>                   <max:COPYLINKTOWO>0</max:COPYLINKTOWO>                   <max:DESCRIPTION>Example of Attach </max:DESCRIPTION>                   <max:DOCTYPE>Attachments</max:DOCTYPE>                   <max:DOCUMENT>Test 01</max:DOCUMENT>                   <max:DOCUMENTDATA>MTIzMTMyMzE=</max:DOCUMENTDATA>                   <max:OWNERTABLE>SR</max:OWNERTABLE>                   <max:UPLOAD>1</max:UPLOAD>                   <max:URLNAME>C:\DOCLINKS\ATTACHMENTS\testfile01.txt</max:URLNAME>                   <max:URLTYPE>FILE</max:URLTYPE>                </max:DOCLINKS>             </max:SR>          </max:MXDOCLINKSet>       </max:SyncMXDOCLINK>    </soapenv:Body> </soapenv:Envelope>
